Hoxton, Mexican Restaurant Guide

“It’s good to see innovative and regular changes to the menu”, say fans of these “enjoyable” Mexican street-food operations, which win many nominations for their “cheap ’n’ cheerful formula, including a “fresh and flavourful” menu majoring in tacos, quesadillas and tostadas”. On the downside, for long-term fans, “the food doesn’t seem as fresh as it used to years ago, by which standard it feels mass produced”.

“Gorgeous plates” of “authentic and original” Mexican food are produced by chef Yahir Gonzalez and his team at this Shoreditch two-year-old, where the tortillas are freshly made every day using traditional methods and heritage corn. There’s a “great atmosphere”, too, and it “works well for a business lunch” – although “the dining room can be a little loud when it’s full”.
